Türkiye’s special representative for the normalisation process with Armenia has said that the opening of the Akhalkalaki-Kars railway line to Armenia’s imports and exports marks a new step in trade relations between the two neighbouring countries.
Serdar Kilic, Türkiye’s special envoy for the normalisation process with Armenia, made the remarks in a post on X on Sunday, referring to Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s earlier announcement that the railway line had been opened to Armenia’s foreign trade.
Kilic described the development as a new step in direct trade within the framework of the Türkiye-Armenia normalisation process.
“I hope this new step, which will also improve quadruple cooperation among Türkiye, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia and make a significant contribution to regional peace and stability, will be beneficial for all these countries,” Kilic said.
